I wouldn't have imagined that a spacing value could be set to "false"
Me neither. Are there any guidelines on what properties can be set to
##f, or should we just always try that when we are trying to make
something have a null effect?
Some properties need a value (setting the value to ##f
normally corresponds to that the property isn't set at all)
otherwise LilyPond can't do its job. However, in most cases
it works, so it's normally worth a try.
One amusing example you could try is to set also the Y-extent
property below to ##f. LilyPond will still produce some output
but you get a good illustration of the difference between having
zero vertical extent and having none at all.

You can indeed set the vertical height of a Lyrics context to zero:
\new Lyrics \with {
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'Y-extent = #'(0 . 0)
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = ##f }
\lyricmode{ Here is some text }

Thank you very much!
